Where is parking strictly prohibited?

Parking is strictly prohibited in all of the mentioned locations for important safety and accessibility reasons.

At fire hydrants, parking is restricted to ensure that firefighters have unhindered access to water sources during an emergency. If a vehicle obstructs a fire hydrant, it can hinder response times and create dangerous situations.

In front of private driveways, parking is also not allowed as it can block access for residents. Drivers need to be able to enter and exit their properties without obstruction, and this rule helps maintain smooth traffic flow and access for emergency vehicles if needed.

Taxi stands are designated areas for taxis to pick up and drop off passengers. Parking in these zones disrupts the service that taxis provide and can lead to congestion, making it difficult for taxis and passengers to operate safely.

Thus, parking is not permitted in these locations to ensure safety, access, and smooth operations for emergency services and transportation.
